Chapter 84 Blood Demon Guard, Blood Demon Cult
After Lu Longshu escaped, other members of the Church of Poseidon also scattered and fled in all directions.

Hong Xing did not chase after these people, but looked at the Yue family guards and said solemnly, "You go back and ask for help, everyone else, follow me!"

She had come here originally just to investigate the Church of Poseidon, but she didn't expect to run into such a thing directly, and she also happened to meet a master of the Church of Poseidon, so she was not well prepared.

After several Yue family confidants rushed to Haijiao City, Hong Xing also led her men to the beach. Even though she was seriously injured, with her cultivation in the Refining Zang Realm, her body had already been tempered thousands of times, and her recovery ability had reached an abnormal level.

She clenched her right fist and felt that she had regained some control.

It is impossible to recover to his full strength, but dealing with warriors below the Refining Zang level is no problem. When the man in black and the bishop of the Church of Poseidon are both injured, he should be able to help.

The reason why she rushed over so anxiously was because she had remembered who the blue-robed bishop was. Although she had never seen that black belt before, the pattern and runes on it were exactly the same as those of the black-robed guardian of the Dragon Temple!
This Sea God Church obviously has an unclear relationship with the Dragon God Temple!
Having dealt with the Dragon God Temple for so many years, she certainly knew that the guardians of the Dragon God Temple would possess a magical weapon blessed by the Dragon God, which could give them a huge advantage in fighting in the water. If the man in black rashly fought with the blue-robed bishop in the water, he would probably suffer a great loss if he was caught off guard.

The sea was calm and there was no trace of the two people.

Hong Xing directed the Yue family guards to row the boat forward and stood at the bow looking into the distance.

Judging from the performance of the Church of Poseidon just now, they should want to transport the villagers of Bishui Village to somewhere else, and the land is all the territories of the four major families, so they can only go by sea. Therefore, there must be a ship from the Church of Poseidon ahead to pick them up.

As long as we can find the boat, we can find the two people fighting!

Hong Xing has a clear idea.

Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, she heard a roar coming from the bottom of the sea.

I rowed the boat to the place where the sound came from, but I only saw a blue-robed figure floating on the sea.

"He actually killed the guardian of the Dragon God Temple at the bottom of the sea, a guardian of the Refining Organ Realm who had a talisman and the blessing of the Dragon God!"

Hong Xing's pupils shrank slightly, and she became more and more curious about the strength of the mysterious man in black, but unfortunately he was no longer around.

At this moment, a transport ship appeared in her sight.

With a cold look on her face, Hong Xing immediately ordered the Yue family guards to row the boat forward.

When she got closer, she saw that all the people on the boat were villagers from Bishui Village, and her half-apprentice Cao Ze was also on the boat, carrying an old man covered in blood on his back.

She knew that this person should be Uncle Qiang, who had once helped Cao Ze.

Seeing this, she felt inexplicably relieved and felt that it was worth it for her to waste so much time teaching Cao Zefeng the Shadow Step.

"Red Apricot Girl!"

Cao Ze showed a look of joy, "I was fishing nearby, and I saw people from the Sea God Church kidnapping villagers, so I rescued everyone..."

Hong Xing nodded to show that she understood. Although she was relieved, she still looked indifferent.

"These people from the Sea God Church are so abominable. They have a big ship ahead. I saw a steady stream of people being transported in by small boats... But there seemed to be experts in there, so I didn't dare go in..."

"Oh, I see!"

Hong Xing nodded again, "You should hurry back to Cape City. It's too dangerous for you here!"

"The rest is up to us."

Cao Ze nodded and agreed without hesitation. He didn't want to face the monster on the ship. He believed that Hong Xing would not be so reckless. Once the reinforcements from the Yue family arrived, the monster would not be a threat anymore.

After killing Lu Longshu, he picked up Uncle Qiang and returned to the sea to find the villagers of Bishui Village who were fleeing for their lives. They got on the boat and rowed towards Bishui Village together, where they happened to meet Hong Xing.

After returning to Bishui Village, Cao Ze carried Uncle Qiang on his back to Haijiao City. Although Uncle Qiang's life was saved, he was old after all, and he needed to recuperate after suffering such a serious injury.

Before leaving Bishui Village, Cao Ze was stopped by Wang Laowu, "Aze, we watched you grow up, you can't just ignore us!"

Looking at the corpses all over the ground and the unconscious villagers, although they escaped a disaster, they did not feel safe at all. Cao Ze's performance in killing the Church of Poseidon just now undoubtedly gave them a huge sense of security. Now Cao Ze has become their life-saving straw.

Not only Wang Laowu, but other villagers also looked at Cao Ze eagerly, feeling confused and helpless.

"Everyone, rest assured, people from the Sea God Church will not come again."

"You all saw the girl in red just now, right? She is from the Yue family. With them here, the Sea God Church will be dealt with soon."

After hearing about the identity of Hong Xingyue's family, the villagers finally gained some confidence.

Looking at Uncle Qiang on Cao Ze's back, they couldn't help but feel envious. They wished they were the ones on Cao Ze's back.

They regretted it. They regretted why they didn't send Cao Ze some food when he was not yet successful.

They regretted not asking about Cao Ze's well-being when he was injured a few months ago...

"Old Qiangtou is so lucky to have met such a good kid like Aze!"

An old man in the village said sourly that they used to often discuss state affairs with Uncle Qiang at the entrance of the village.

"Who says it's not?"

"It's really thanks to Aze this time, otherwise..."

The other villagers also said with lingering fear, God knows where those people from the Church of Poseidon are going to send them.

If they were taken to mine or something, perhaps they could survive a little longer. What was even more terrifying was that they had heard before that some evil sects would hold blood sacrifices... The thought of it made them feel scared again.

"Aze is such a promising kid. It's only been less than a year and he's already moved to Cape City!"

Looking towards the direction of Cape City, the villagers sighed.

"I hope the Yue family can really deal with the Sea God Church!"

The villagers looked at the magnificent church in Bishui Village and felt complicated for a moment, as if they had had a nightmare, and the shadow of this nightmare still shrouded them and could swallow them up again at any time.

……

In the East China Sea, Yue Lingke stood alone at the bow of a light boat. The boat moved without wind and sped across the sea like an arrow.

This time, they made a mistake!
The Dragon God Temple did not take the bait, but took advantage of the fact that they were setting up a dragnet in Haishi to plunder the coast of the East China Sea. They wanted to lure them into a trap, but instead they fell into the Dragon God Temple's trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain.

Suddenly, Yue Lingke raised his eyes and looked towards the sea ahead.

I saw a column of blood rising into the sky, and the blood and smoke covered the sky and the sun. Its power was no less than that of an ordinary half-step master.

However, this smoke of blood and qi contains a strong smell of blood.

Yue Lingke knew that this was because this half-step grandmaster had been forcibly promoted through blood sacrifice.

It wasn't just this one blood smoke. At the same time, countless blood pillars rose up from the entire East China Sea. Some of them stretched from the sky to the sun, and their power could even rival that of a master. One or two of them even made Yue Lingke feel frightened.

She couldn't imagine how many people were sacrificed in the Dragon Temple this time.

He turned the boat around and rushed towards the nearest column of blood.

Soon, she saw a large ship over a hundred meters long, which was parked less than thirty nautical miles away from Feiyan Port. It really did not take the four major families seriously.

However, the location where this blood column appeared was indeed a bit strange. The other blood columns were in the open sea, far away from the coast. I don't know why this blood column appeared here alone.

The ship was littered with corpses, and the strong smell of blood was coming from it. Not only ordinary people who were abducted by the Church of Poseidon, but even the believers of the Church of Poseidon were lying in a pool of blood.

Yue Lingke didn't know what happened to the big ship, but she still frowned. It was obvious from this that with so many blood pillars on the sea, how many people would be needed for blood sacrifice?
Is the Dragon God Temple crazy? Although Daqian is in decline, a broken ship still has three pounds of nails. A behemoth like the Dynasty is definitely not something that a small Dragon God Temple can provoke.

At this time, a monster with a snake head and a human body also walked out of the blood column.

The monster held a scepter in one hand, and a blood-red ball the size of a walnut was suspended an inch above the top of the scepter. In its other hand, it was dragging a book.

Blood Demon Guard!

The moment he saw this monster, Yue Lingke suddenly understood.

It turns out that the Dragon God Temple is the remnant of the Blood Demon Cult.

The Blood Demon Cult was once a prosperous sect, but unfortunately the leader could not resist the temptation and fell into the evil way. He increased his strength by sacrificing blood, and in a short period of time, the Blood Demon Cult produced many masters.

Unfortunately, in the end these people lost their minds and became walking corpses who only knew how to kill.

Later, after generations of improvements, the Blood Demon Cult began to use blood sacrifices to refine powerful puppets, which was the Blood Demon Guard in front of Yue Lingke. It successfully avoided the risk of losing sanity, but the disadvantage was that it required more blood and the upper limit was also lower.

When Daqian was founded, the Blood Demon Cult wreaked havoc everywhere, and tens of millions of innocent people were slaughtered as blood sacrifices. Eventually, the Daqian court trampled on the mountain gate and destroyed their heritage.

Unexpectedly, those guys did not die out, but escaped to the East China Sea and have been passed down.

When Daqian declines, it will jump out again to cause trouble.

The blood demon guard with a human head and a snake body also discovered Yue Lingke. Unfortunately, a puppet is just a puppet, and it actually took the initiative to attack Yue Lingke.

The scepter was swung and a blood-red light shot out. At the same time, a page of paper flew out from the book in his left hand. The blood light was injected into the paper and immediately condensed into a huge spear. The spear seemed to be made of pure blood, exuding a strong bloody smell. The spear was several feet long, and the tip of the spear flashed with a sharp light, as if it could pierce through all obstacles.

The spear drew a bloody trail in the air and stabbed towards Yue Lingke violently with the force of thunder. Wherever it passed, the air seemed to be torn apart by this force, making a sharp sound of breaking wind.

Wherever the spear went, even the air was pierced and torn apart in an instant, turning into a bloody mess.

Yue Lingke snorted coldly, clenched his right fist, and punched out casually.

As heavy as a mountain, the blood-red spear collapsed at the first touch, as if its momentum to tear the sky and earth apart just now was just an illusion.

The gap in strength was already very obvious, but the Blood Demon Guard showed no fear at all. He waved his scepter and continued to attack, as if he was born to do only one thing - kill.

Unfortunately, the next moment Yue Lingke had already arrived next to it and punched it lightly again.

Wow…

In an instant, rubble was scattered all over the ground.

A half-step Grandmaster can be destroyed with a flick of the hand!
……

"what?"

"That woman destroyed another Blood Demon Guard?"

Deep in the East China Sea, on Palace Island, a golden-robed chief priest angrily asked, "What does that guy Lu Longshu do for a living?"

Normally the Blood Demon Guard should not have been activated on the East Coast, and this was clearly a dereliction of duty by Captain Lu Longshu, who was in charge of the Blood Demon Guard.

"Lu Longshu is dead!" the green-robed guardian said.

"died?"

The golden-robed chief priest murmured, then shook his head, "Forget it, it's not his fault that the four families reacted so quickly."

"Lu Longshu was not killed by the four major families."

The green-robed guardian said again, "He was killed by that man in black!"

"Man in black?"

"That's the man in black who killed Saladin!"

"Can he kill Lu Longshu?"

The golden-robed chief priest was puzzled.

"From the information sent from the front, it is indeed him!"

The green-robed guardian replied, "It was precisely because of his appearance that the Blood Demon Guard was activated prematurely and ran into Yue Lingke who was returning to the city."

The golden-robed chief priest then sat back in his seat and said, "It seems that I underestimated him."

As he spoke, his face was already covered with a murderous sneer, "In that case, I will issue a reward to Donghai. Anyone who can kill the man in black will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver!"

That guy who hides his head and shows his tail is certainly not worth a reward of ten thousand taels, but he just wants to let the people of the East China Sea know that if they dare to go against the Dragon God Temple, there will be no good end!

……

Cape City, Lu family.

"He has been practicing at home these days?"

In the pavilion, Lu Qiancheng took a sip of tea and sat leisurely beside the stone table, feeling confident.

"Practice very hard!"

The gray-clothed middle-aged man standing there added his own judgment, "However, the strength he showed is indeed just the beginning of the Bone Tempering Realm."

"You really keep your composure!"

"Just keep watching. I want to see how long he can endure."

Lu Qiancheng simply couldn't believe it. He was also an expert in using a knife, and he came with a head to claim the reward. How could such a coincidence happen in the world?

"Lu Chenan, is he really the man in black?"

The middle-aged man in gray couldn't help but say something more. He had been waiting outside Lu Chenan's courtyard for several months, and indeed did not find anything unusual. He couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

"Can my judgment be wrong?"

Lu Qiancheng chuckled, as if looking down on Lu Chenan as if he had seen through his disguise.

At this moment, a gray-clothed servant ran in from the outer courtyard, panting and saying, "It appears, it appears, the mysterious man in black appears!"

After saying that, he told Lu Qiancheng everything that happened in the sea outside Bishui Village.

Lu Qiancheng looked at the middle-aged man in gray.

"I'm sure he's still in the yard!"

The middle-aged man in gray was equally confident.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Lu Qiancheng waved his hands vigorously, unable to figure out what was wrong with his reasoning.
